We divide 148764 by 26
We want to figure out the number of times 148764 can be divided by 26.

Let's proceed to step 1:
If we divide 1 by 26, we get 0 and a remainder of 1.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 1 and continue with: 14 / 26

Advancing to step 2:
14 divided by 26 is 0 with a remainder of 14.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Deduct 0 from 14 and we're left with 14.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 14 and continue with: 148 / 26

Going ahead to step 3:
The number 26 fits into 148 5 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtract 130 from 148 to get 18.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 18 and repeat the process: 187 / 26

Advancing to step 4:
26 goes into 187 7 times with a remainder of 5.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 57.0
Subtract 182 from 187 to get 5.
Grab the next digit (6) from the dividend, add it to 5, then carry on: 56 / 26

Going ahead to step 5:
When dividing 56 by 26, we get 2 with a remainder of 4.
Put 2 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 572.0
If we subtract 52 from 56, we get 4.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 44 / 26

Moving on to step 6:
26 goes into 44 1 times with a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 1. 
Result so far: 5721.0
Subtract 26 from 44 to get 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
26 goes into 180 6 times with a remainder of 24.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5721.6
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 240 by 26, we get 9 with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5721.69
If we subtract 234 from 240, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
26 goes into 60 2 times with a remainder of 8.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5721.692
If we take 52 away from 60, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
26 can be fit into 80 3 times, resulting in a remainder of 2.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5721.6923
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 78 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 11:
The number 26 fits into 20 0 times, leaving a remainder of 20.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 5721.6923
The remainder is 20 after subtracting 0 from 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
26 can be fit into 200 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 18.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5721.692307
If we take 182 away from 200, we end up with 18.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 180, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
The number 26 fits into 180 6 times, leaving a remainder of 24.
Record the quotient 6 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 5721.6923076
The remainder is 24 after subtracting 156 from 180.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 240, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 14:
If we divide 240 by 26, we get 9 and a remainder of 6.
The number 9 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5721.69230769
If we subtract 234 from 240, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 5721.69230769, with a leftover of 6e-09.
